Hi blackcat,

There were three different post cards issued in 1935/36 with this stamp.

In the old Higgins & Gage catalogue, they are H&G #141-143.

"Antique" used to mean to dealers and collectors something about 100 years old or more. "Vintage" meant something about 50 years old or more but not "antique". This item is certainly vintage in the classic definition, though both terms were seldom used for stamps. We've seen where the words are nowadays heavily abused/have had their meanings changed where "antique" is often used to describe something 50-75 years old or even less, "vintage" something older than 20-25 years old or even less.

Not sure if that is correct, I made this page several years ago.

Mutilated Stationery fragments.

No Rod , the U47 is an envelope not a post card( if it's realy a post card ) it's useless to ID it since you need to full card to do so. Or..is it an envelope or a Post Card or other thing ???????

Right, thanks, that makes sense.
Most of mine, if memory serves, are thinnish whitish paper, probably envelopes.
